I'm build a linux workstation for my wife -- her first linux box. Since her last immersion in command line usage was back in CP/M day, and then DOS before Windows, I am trying to set her up with as many GUI solutions as possible. konqueror is, of course, a prime choice! We both work on web sites, and move "stuff" to and fro a VPS we share. In my own usage I've been using `sshfs` to mount the remote file system on a mount point in my $HOME -- do whatever I needed to do -- then unmount the remote file system. ... all at the command line. An annoyance I've always cursed is the inability of `cp`, `mv`, or even `rsync` to replicate the from_file permissions to the to-file's permissions with the `sshfs` mounts -- because the owning userids are different between the two file systems. Even tho', immediately after getting the error message from `cp`, I can `chmod` the permissions to what I want without any error. sigh... That command line Miky-Maus was not something I wanted to foist on my wife. So, I spent maybe an hour today trying to find a way around the problem in general. No joy. So, for the first time in my testing, I fired up konqueror with two panes: one pane on $HOME/ amd the other pane on the already-mounted remote file system. Then I copied from a local directory a large collection of files with many, many different possible permissions set all the way through the public permissions. I was going to go through the "right click on the file" => "Properties" => "permissions" => owner|group|others change process to make a write up for her to follow. KONQUEROR ROCKS! The file were all copied up to the remote file system WITH THE ORIGINAL FILE'S PERMISSIONS!!! KONQUEROR ROCKS! Thank you KDE; Thank you TDE; Thank you Trinity!! (Gee... I sure hope that's not a bug!!! If so, DON'T FIX IT!!!) Life is good!

[trinity-users] Problem with twin and recent Firefox repainting when switching desktops

by Snidely Whiplash

When switching virtual desktops back to the one where Firefox is open, when certain pages are displaying on the active tab, the window contents do not repaint until moving the mouse over a mouseover effect (e.g. a hoverable link) changes the window status. The window then shows its contents. This started for me with Firefox 73, got somewhat better with Firefox 74 (could only reproduce it on one page, a specific Vbulletin forum listing) and got worse than ever with Firefox 75. Now it happens with most pages that have a list of hoverable links. For example Vbulletin forum listings, and even https://www.kernel.org This does not happen with Fluxbox, seems to be only with TDE/twin. I can reproduce it on both my Manjaro and Linux From Scratch systems. I thought maybe enabling the compositing ("composition manager") might help with this (I build support for it, but I don't enable it) but it neither helps nor harms. A previous cause of this in Firefox was "focusmanager.testmode" but that's set to false now and not applicable. Anybody else seeing this behaviour, or know of any settings or command line arguments for twin that might change this paint behaviour? Thanks,

[trinity-users] Behavoir missing from konq settings

by BorgLabs - Kate Draven

Hi humans, AIs and others.. I hope all of you are well in this zombie apocalypse. Well now, update and all seems well save for one thing. The Settings->Configure Konqueror and select Behaviour in the iconbar to the left is missing. I accidently set konq (root) to allow delete without warning and I want to set it back but can't. Any help? Has it been moved? Removed? Zombies get it? Oh dear... Well thanks to all in advance. Stay safe, Kate --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: trinity-users-unsubscribe(a)lists.pearsoncomputing.net For additional commands, e-mail: trinity-users-help(a)lists.pearsoncomputing.net Read list messages on the web archive: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/ Please remember not to top-post: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/mailing_lists/#top-posting

[trinity-users] The Persistence Of Sorting

by Forrest Leeson

If Konqueror is set to sort by type or mimetype, the sort indicator will appear on the appropriate column from then on, but the actual files will be sorted alphabetically. Google turns up nothing with "konqueror sort filetype site:pearsoncomputing.net", so maybe something's broken lower down on my system, as Caja has a similar problem (not Thunar, though). Anyone else notice this? --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: trinity-users-unsubscribe(a)lists.pearsoncomputing.net For additional commands, e-mail: trinity-users-help(a)lists.pearsoncomputing.net Read list messages on the web archive: http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/ Please remember not to top-post: http://trinity.pearsoncomputing.net/mailing_lists/#top-posting

[trinity-users] TDE on Fedora 29

by Steven D'Aprano

Hi guys, I have a couple of PCs running Fedora 29, and I'm like to get TDE running on them. (1) has an Intel Celeron CPU G3950 (2 cores) @ 3.00GHz with 4GB of RAM. (2) has Intel(R) Core i3-8109U CPU (4 cores) @ 3.00GHz with 8GB of RAM. What are my chances of getting it to work? How do I go about it?

[trinity-users] konqueror color problem ...

by Dr. Nikolaus Klepp

Hi all! I just ran into a problem with the color of the text in the adressline of konqueror: The text is always black and I have not found a way to change it. Also the color of the text under the icons in the konquerors settings dialog turn to black on mouseover, but never change back again when mouse is leaving. Please see the attached image, I've marked the spots :) Could somebody with a dark theme please check if it's just me?
